Not really sure what you're referencing, you mean the original Tau fluff on how we found a warp drive on one of T'au's moons? That's the fluff I side with, as does Forgeworld and all of the original fluff... Which is yet another reason I ignore the Farsight books and the Mu'gulath Bay 'plot'... whic...

I don't know when it is but "The Greater Evil" is an excellent short story by Fehverue that finally describes what a Tau Genestealer cult would like (as well as consideration for how hard it would be/the perfect scenario). Additionally it creates the new title for an Ethereal called a &quo...

They're described in a Space Marine book, I'm going to forget which one, as giant bird like creatures that are particularly hated because they make you remember things (like highly emotional memories of your childhood) which, for a Space Marine, is extremely traumatic since they mostly are ripped fr...

Just for you A Manta class dropship was designed to hold an entire Cadre, deliver them into combat and support them indefinitely in any theater of war. To see one so completely empty like this seemed wrong. The only source of illumination came from a glow globe Juu'oh held up, revealing the strippe...

I think this conversation is, unfortunately, going the way of: 'you make the game you want' I've always been opposed to this because the whole point of liking a certain genre is also enjoying the restrictions of a universe in order to give characters obstacles. I'll use the example of Hyperspace in ...

I largely agree with Arka0415, but I disagree that population has something to do with it as there seems to be such a variety of different Septs. Instead, I'd say that a Sept is more or less 'declared' after it has shown the necessary, unique, requirements to be called one just like a Trial by Fire ...

So, is it POSSIBLE that a Tau could use warp powers? I mean... Ultimately it's whatever you want, but... at least looking through the lens of the better fluff; no. And I don't consider the garbage that is Farsight's books to be anything near canonical since it can't even reference its own books cor...

In the few canonical examples we have it seems that they generally take a long time to form and it's not necessarily a given that every colony will become a Sept. Colonies go through phases that can take centuries of investment on behalf of neighboring systems, slowly growing before they achieve 'Se...

It's been a while- happy to continue: Commander Ga'rah was a student of Kauyon, the Patient Hunter, and had spent her youth in the battledomes enmeshed in the Shadowsun engram nexus. There, the ghostly image of the famed leader of the Fire Caste had appeared in her mind's eye where she spent countl...

Without wanting to spark another round of "stop complaining and just enjoy a game" vs "I spend way too much money on this hobby for them to screw over my armylist/fluff" I've been reading the index and thinking about what's happening in the Tau side of the galaxy. Not only have o...
